Change Fund Equation Cash Register $ 10.00 28.00 7.00 98.00 43.00 Sales total 189.

13 At any point in time, the total of the cash register tape for sales plus the beginning change fund should equal the total ending cash count. Change Fund Equation Cash Register $ Sales total Beginning Change Fund Register Tape Sales total $ Ending Cash Count ASS. PROF.DR.HAYDER ALI AL- MASUDI 13

14 Example: Register tape sales total for the cashier s shift $895 Ending cash count $1043 Using the equation, beginning change fund + register tape sales should equal ending cash count however, $ $1045 Therefore, cash is short $2 and the Cash Short and Over account will be used to record this expense (debit). If the cash count exceeded $1045, the Cash Short and Over account would have been used to record the gain (credit). ASS. PROF.DR.HAYDER ALI AL- MASUDI 14

15 Journalize Cash Sales 1. The cash count total of $1,043 is not journalized. 2. We simply record the effect on the regular cash account with a debit for the actual increase in cash $1,043 - $150 = $ No entry is made to the Change Fund except to increase or decrease it.
